such persons to those desiring them. Athlopho-

that can stand such test.
Augusta, Me-. April 10, 1885,
No sirl ! don't think anything about it. 1
knoto Athlophoros to be the best medicine that
ever was for rheumatism or neuralgia; when my
son was very i'll with neuralgia and was being
treated by doctors all the way from Boston and
Bangor, who said neuralgia was hard thing to
handle, they did not ease him, but three doses
of Athlophoros knocked the pain out of him, as it
did for me.
For seven weeks could not do stroke of
work took Athlophoros, because it has done so
much for my boy my rheumatism troubled me in
the back, legs and feet. Athlophoros will kill
pain quicker than any medicine ever saw or
took. VoRANoUs KDIBALL.

its work in this place. Mr.. cyrus Curtis mas been
so afflicted with rheumatism for the past three
years he has been unable to walk, except to put
one foot out and drag the other up to II and thus
